Big Class Astra Rounding The Mark

Steven Dews

Ref: PRI000012

By 1932, the era of the 'Big Class' yachts was drawing to a close as the American 'J' Class rule was gradually introduced. Led by Astra, the leading yachts of the time reduced their canvas sizes to bring themselves also into line with the new American rules. This created a highly competitive 'Big Class' season's racing, from which this subject depicts Astra at Solent Fortnight.

Ref: PRI000126

This image depicts Britannia, as well as three other famous Big Class cutters, ready to answer the starter's gun on a breezy morning in August 1893. Although Santanita was the most powerful of the yachts to race, due to her unwise decision to hoist an extra sail, she was actually beaten by the smaller Britannia on the day.

8mR Racing in the West Solent

Steven Dews

Ref: PRI000130

In speaking of his work, Steven Dews has commented: "To paint marine scenes you've got to be a sailor. You've got to feel how the wind moves, how it affects the sea and how it affects the boat. "You've also got to know the rules of the road! Otherwise it is impossible to build a painting that is technically correct. Every painting to me is an adventure - setting the mood of the sky and thus the mood of the painting - but there are no shortcuts - it is 5% inspiration and 95% sheer hard work."

Moonbeam at the Fife Regatta

Steven Dews

Ref: PRI000117

Steven Dews's latest memorable limited edition celebrates the Fife Regatta, which was held on the Clyde in June 1998. The regatta was organised to bring some of the greatest yachts built by the famous Clyde yard of W Fife & Son back to their birthplace. The yard thrived from 1790 to 1965 and Moonbeam III was the fastest of the surviving Fife yachts to return for the celebrations. Designed by William Fife III and built in 1903, Moonbeam III was victorious in two of her races and is depicted here during the final event of the great regatta, The Kyles of Bute Race.
